WEIGHT LOSS is different for everyone, but eating breakfast is one thing many studies agree on. Experts have suggested one healthy breakfast which is delicious as well as filling.

Weight loss is all to do with developing healthy eating habits and maintaining them.

Eating breakfast every day is a ritual which has been scientifically proven to help you lose weight.

In fact, one study found more than 75 per cent of people who lose over 30 pounds and keep it off eat breakfast daily.

But choosing the right breakfast is equally important to aid weight loss. Suzy Weems, PhD, a registered dietitian and professor of family and consumer sciences at Baylor University, told WebMD: “Yes, you should eat breakfast.”

Scientists at the University of Bath’s Department for Health test those who ate before exercise verses those who did not.

They found those who ate breakfast first increased the rate of calories burned.

Those who took part in the study and ate breakfast had a bowl of porridge made with milk two hours before exercise.

This increased the rate the body burned carbohydrates and also increased the metabolism during and after the exercise.

“This is the first study to examine the ways in which breakfast before exercise influences our responses to meals after exercise,” Dr Javier Gonzalez, senior lecturer in the Department of Health said.
